Passwords.. how good is yours?

Question: I once advised some friends (well, colleagues) that you could use your childhood phone number, along with a letter or two. Area code included depending on how many characters you need. They liked that because it was easy to remember what the number was, as well as what they'd decided to use as a password.

I understand the limited longevity, but in general, is there anything to say about that?
